From Shiloh.
We are informed by a correspondent,
writing from Shiloh, that a large alligator
was recently killed in the mill pond of Mr.
A. M. Woods. The beast had been for some
time a terror to those who frequented the pond
and the letter, (which we intended to publish,
but regret to say that it was misplaced, ) gave
a humorous account of a regatta between
friend Woods and the "gator," ia which the
former congratulated himself in barely get?
ting to land in time to save his bones, after a
hard paddle. We hope to hear from our
Shiloh correspondent soon again, and prom?
ise to be more careful of his letters. He com?
plains of dry weather aral short crops.

When a board of eminent physicians
and chemists announced the discovery that by
combining some well known valuable remedies
the most wonderful medicine was produced,
which would cure such a wide range of diseases
that most all other remedies could be dis?

of its merits by actual trial bas dispelled all
doubt, and to-day the discoverers ofthat great
medicine, Hop Bitters, are honored and blessed
by <U1 as benefactors.-Democrat.

Five years ago my wife was far gone in Con?

I number of hopeless cases, and regard Brewer's

The President.
-o
The condition of the President from
the latest dispatches seems to be satis?
factory to the attending surgeons. By
an ingenious contrivance of Prof. Bell,
in the way of an electrical apparatus
known as the induction balance, the
location of the ball has been found to be
in the front wall of the abdomen, im?
mediately above the groin, about five
inches below and to the right of the
navel. The following are tho latest
official bulletins :
EXECUTIVE MANSION, August I, 8.30 P. Sf.
-The President slept well during the night,
and this morning is cheerful, and expresses
himself as feeling better than at any time
since he was hurt. After the slight rise of
yesterday afternoon, his temperature became
again normal early in the evening, and so
continues. He appears stronger and has evi?
dently made good progress on the road towards
recovery during the last few days.- His pulse
is now 94, temperature 98.4, respiration 18.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, August 1, 12.30 P. M.
-The President's wound continues to do
well. At the morning dressing it was found
to be in all respects in a satisfactory condition.
After dressing was concluded his head and
shoulders were raised in the same manner as
yesterday, and he took solid food for break?
fast with more relish than he bas hitherto
shown. At present his pulse is 100, temper?
ature 98.4, respiration 19.
